Onboard are astronauts Dick Scobee, Mike Smith, Judy Resnick, Ellison Onizuka, Ron McNair, Greg Jarvis of RCA and Teacher in Space Christa McCauliffe.
This is the edited launch coverage. I have used various sources of video/audio/photos to portray the countdown and build up to the launch and the subsequent accident.
The video record is not complete. There are various shots of the pad from that morning and none of it synchs straight to the PAO commentary. I have tried to do this as best I can. I have used some of the FD loop after launch on a seperate channel.
The video starts with a view of the preperation of the launch vehicle and rollout of Challenger to the pad.
There is some footage of the flight crews arrival at the Cape - NOTE the audio will not synch to the video....and I re-recorded it too!
There then follows the breakfast scenes and the walkout to the astro bus which, in turn, is followed by the crew egress - this is incomplete and I have left it as was released by NASA.
The countdown audio can be found at the NASA archive. I have edited bits of the audio at the beginning of the video to fit in spaces - so you will hear the LCC controllers etc. For the actual count from T-9 min I have left it unedited from the original, that is how it was broadcast on the day.
There are various film sources available for the accident and launch sequence. Many are run at slow speeds due to the analysis that was done and I have used three seperate ones and have nearly managed to speed them up and synch them. This sequence is not perfect by any means but is approximated.
I used photos to fill in the end part just to remind us all that we are all human!

Dick Scobee

Francis Richard "Dick" Scobee (May 19, 1939 – January 28, 1986) was an Americanastronaut. He was killed commanding the Space Shuttle Challenger, which suffered catastrophic booster failure during launch of the STS-51-L mission. He is survived by his wife, June, two children, Kathie R. (Scobee) Fulgham and Major General Richard W. Scobee.

Early life

Scobee was born May 19, 1939, in Cle Elum, Washington to Francis William Scobee and Edlynn (Miller) Scobee, he attended Washington Elementary School, Cascade Middle School, and Auburn Senior High School, from which he graduated in 1957.

Space Shuttle Challenger

Space Shuttle Challenger (Orbiter Vehicle Designation: OV-099) was the second orbiter of NASA's space shuttle program to be put into service following Columbia. The shuttle was built by Rockwell International's Space Transportation Systems Division in Downey, California. Its maiden flight, STS-6, started on April 4, 1983. It launched and landed nine times before breaking apart 73 seconds into its tenth mission, STS-51-L, on January 28, 1986, resulting in the death of all seven crew members, including a civilian who worked as a school teacher. It was the first of two shuttles to be destroyed in flight. The accident led to a two-and-a-half year grounding of the shuttle fleet; flights resumed in 1988 with STS-26 flown by Discovery. Challenger itself was replaced by Endeavour which was built using structural spares ordered by NASA as part of the construction contracts for Discovery and Atlantis. Endeavour was launched for the first time in May 1992.

Although civil law claims are subject to some temporal constraints, when it comes to criminal offences there is generally no limitation to prosecution and trial. The question of whether such time limitations should be available in the criminal law has become particularly topical in light of the large number of crimes, mainly historic sexual offences and particularly against children, alleged, and in some cases proven in court. Are there good reasons to still prosecute in such circumstances or do crimes ever go too stale? Should they be dealt with in alternative truth-finding procedures such as the, so far ill-fated, IndependentInquiry into Child Sexual Abuse?

If you are 40 years or older, you may remember January 28th1986. It was the day of a huge NASA catastrophe off the coast of Cape Canaveral, Florida, where at 11:38 am EST, 73 seconds after take-off, Space Shuttle Challenger exploded in a tremendous burst over the Atlantic. Now, for a second time this matter leaves the world breathless. Though, this latest shock even surpasses the one of 30 years ago.
At least six of the seven Challenger crew members are said to be still alive; four of them even under the same name.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STS-41-C
STS-41-C was NASA's 11th Space Shuttle mission, and the fifth mission of Space Shuttle Challenger. The launch, which took place on 6 April 1984, was the first direct ascent trajectory for a shuttle mission. STS-41-C was extended one day due to problems capturing the Solar Maximum Mission ("SolarMax") satellite, and the landing on 13 April took place at Edwards Air Force Base, instead of at Kennedy Space Center as had been planned...Liftoff took place at 8:58 am EST on 6 April 1984. The mission marked the first direct ascent trajectory for the Space Shuttle, which reached its 288-nautical-mile-(533-km)-high orbit using its Orbiter Maneuvering System (OBS) engines only once, to circularize its orbit.
The flight had two primary objectives. The first was to deploy the Long Duration Exposure Facility (LDEF)... The second objective was to capture, repair and redeploy the malfunctioning Solar Maximum Mission satellite -- "Solar Max" -- that had been launched in 1980.
The five-man crew included Robert L. Crippen, commander, on his third shuttle flight; pilot Francis R. Scobee; and mission specialists James D. A. van Hoften, Terry J. Hart and George D. Nelson.
On the second day of the flight, the LDEF was grappled by the "Canadarm" Remote Manipulator System (RMS) arm and successfully released into orbit... Retrieval of the passive LDEF had been scheduled during 1985, but schedule delays and the Challenger disaster of 1986 postponed the return until 12 January1990, when Columbia retrieved LDEF on mission STS-32.
On the third day of the mission, Challenger's orbit was raised to about 300 nautical miles (560 km), and it maneuvered to within 200 feet (61 m) of Solar Max. AstronautsNelson and van Hoften, wearing spacesuits, entered the payload bay. Nelson, using the Manned Maneuvering Unit (MMU), flew out to the satellite and attempted to grasp it with a special capture tool, called the Trunnion Pin AcquisitionDevice (TPAD). Three attempts to clamp the TPAD onto the satellite failed. The Solar Max began tumbling on multiple axes when Nelson attempted to grab it by hand, by a solar array, and the effort was called off.
During the night, the Solar Max POCC, at Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Maryland, was able to establish control over the satellite by sending commands ordering the magnetic torque bars to stabilize the tumbling action...
The next day, Crippen maneuvered Challenger back to Solar Max, and Hart was able to grapple the satellite with the RMS. They placed Solar Max on a special cradle in the payload bay using the RMS. They then began the repair operation, replacing the satellite's attitude control mechanism and the main electronics system of the coronagraph instrument... Solar Max was deployed back into orbit the next day. After a 30-day checkout by the Goddard POCC, the satellite resumed full operation...
Highlights of the mission... appeared in the IMAX movie "The Dream is Alive."
The 6-day, 23-hour, 40-minute, 7-second mission ended on 13 April 1984, at 5:38 am PST, when Challenger landed on Runway 17, at Edwards AFB, having completed 108 orbits over the course of STS-41-C. Challenger was returned to KSC on 18 April 1984.

Onboard are astronauts Dick Scobee, Mike Smith, Judy Resnick, Ellison Onizuka, Ron McNair, Greg Jarvis of RCA and Teacher in Space Christa McCauliffe.
This is the edited launch coverage. I have used various sources of video/audio/photos to portray the countdown and build up to the launch and the subsequent accident.
The video record is not complete. There are various shots of the pad from that morning and none of it synchs straight to the PAO commentary. I have tried to do this as best I can. I have used some of the FD loop after launch on a seperate channel.
The video starts with a view of the preperation of the launch vehicle and rollout of Challenger to the pad.
There is some footage of the flight crews arrival at the Cape - NOTE the audio will not synch to the video....and I re-recorded it too!
There then follows the breakfast scenes and the walkout to the astro bus which, in turn, is followed by the crew egress - this is incomplete and I have left it as was released by NASA.
The countdown audio can be found at the NASA archive. I have edited bits of the audio at the beginning of the video to fit in spaces - so you will hear the LCC controllers etc. For the actual count from T-9 min I have left it unedited from the original, that is how it was broadcast on the day.
There are various film sources available for the accident and launch sequence. Many are run at slow speeds due to the analysis that was done and I have used three seperate ones and have nearly managed to speed them up and synch them. This sequence is not perfect by any means but is approximated.
I used photos to fill in the end part just to remind us all that we are all human!

STS-51L Challenger - Launch Coverage

Please read this description:
January 28th1986 - 11.32am ESTSTS-51L - Challenger
Onboard are astronauts Dick Scobee, Mike Smith, Judy Resnick, Ellison Onizuka, Ron McNair, Greg Jarvis of RCA and Teacher in Space Christa McCauliffe.
This is the edited launch coverage. I have used various sources of video/audio/photos to portray the countdown and build up to the launch and the subsequent accident.
The video record is not complete. There are various shots of the pad from that morning and none of it synchs straight to the PAO commentary. I have tried to do this as best I can. I have used some of the FD loop after launch on a seperate channel.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STS-41-C
STS-41-C was NASA's 11th Space Shuttle mission, and the fifth mission of Space Shuttle Challenger. The launch, which took place on 6 April 1984, was the first direct ascent trajectory for a shuttle mission. STS-41-C was extended one day due to problems capturing the Solar Maximum Mission ("SolarMax") satellite, and the landing on 13 April took place at Edwards Air Force Base, instead of at Kennedy Space Center as had been planned...Liftoff took place at 8:58 am EST on 6 April 1984. The mission marked the first direct ascent trajectory for the Space Shuttle, which reached its 288-nautical-mile-(533-km)-high orbit using its Orbiter Maneuvering System (OBS) engines only once, to circularize its orbit.
The flight had two primary objectives. The first was to deploy the Long Duration Exposure Facility (LDEF)... The second objective was to capture, repair and redeploy the malfunctioning Solar Maximum Mission satellite -- "Solar Max" -- that had been launched in 1980.
The five-man crew included Robert L. Crippen, commander, on his third shuttle flight; pilot Francis R. Scobee; and mission specialists James D. A. van Hoften, Terry J. Hart and George D. Nelson.
On the second day of the flight, the LDEF was grappled by the "Canadarm" Remote Manipulator System (RMS) arm and successfully released into orbit... Retrieval of the passive LDEF had been scheduled during 1985, but schedule delays and the Challenger disaster of 1986 postponed the return until 12 January1990, when Columbia retrieved LDEF on mission STS-32.
On the third day of the mission, Challenger's orbit was raised to about 300 nautical miles (560 km), and it maneuvered to within 200 feet (61 m) of Solar Max. AstronautsNelson and van Hoften, wearing spacesuits, entered the payload bay. Nelson, using the Manned Maneuvering Unit (MMU), flew out to the satellite and attempted to grasp it with a special capture tool, called the Trunnion Pin AcquisitionDevice (TPAD). Three attempts to clamp the TPAD onto the satellite failed. The Solar Max began tumbling on multiple axes when Nelson attempted to grab it by hand, by a solar array, and the effort was called off.
During the night, the Solar Max POCC, at Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Maryland, was able to establish control over the satellite by sending commands ordering the magnetic torque bars to stabilize the tumbling action...
The next day, Crippen maneuvered Challenger back to Solar Max, and Hart was able to grapple the satellite with the RMS. They placed Solar Max on a special cradle in the payload bay using the RMS. They then began the repair operation, replacing the satellite's attitude control mechanism and the main electronics system of the coronagraph instrument... Solar Max was deployed back into orbit the next day. After a 30-day checkout by the Goddard POCC, the satellite resumed full operation...
Highlights of the mission... appeared in the IMAX movie "The Dream is Alive."
The 6-day, 23-hour, 40-minute, 7-second mission ended on 13 April 1984, at 5:38 am PST, when Challenger landed on Runway 17, at Edwards AFB, having completed 108 orbits over the course of STS-41-C. Challenger was returned to KSC on 18 April 1984.
